Description
The Heather Blazing is a wonderful character study of a man, his childhood, family, and community.
It is impossible to read Tóibín without being moved, touched and finally changed.
Proceeds with stately grace from past to present, incident to incident, slowly forming, as it moves, the full shape of a man’s public and private life.
If Colm Tóibín were a singer you would say he had perfect pitch.
Colm Tóibín was born in Ireland in 1955. He is the author of eleven novels, including The Master, Brooklyn and The Magician, and two collections of stories. He has been three times shortlisted for the Booker Prize. In 2021, he was awarded the David Cohen Prize for Literature. Tóibín was appointed the Laureate for Irish Fiction 2022–2024.
